BCAA's beneficial during work?

HiMet4590 · 07-15-2009, 12:54 AM

I usually go around 5 hours without food at work and i was wondering if it would be beneficial to sip on water with BCAA's during those times? I usually have my handy dandy met-rx bar halfway through but that only does so much. I feel like i take a step back everyday while at work,thanks guys

Yes, while whole food is the best thing to eat for meals, if not possible leucine is one of the best supplements to take, to preserve muscle loss, so BCAA are the go to product usually. Look into BPS Anabolic 411 it has extra leucine in it which would be perfect.

Agreed. Lots of evidence that it decreases catabolism. If you have to go a long while without food it would be a good idea to use some BCAA. As suggested the 4

1 is the new standard and shows good promise.

I drink some on my longer shifts when I can't get a break to eat, or avoid eating the junk the bring in.

Those will work, maybe just take 2 servings, and might have to add some crystal lite to them.
